And Piniella has shown that he gets very frustrated, very quickly with below-average talent. He was terrific in Cincinnati and even in Seattle (with A-Rod and Junior in his prime). But with the Devil Rays, it seemed like he just didn't care. Just get through the year. I don't think Lou is long for Chicago.

And unless there were guns drawn in the clubhouse, I think the Macha firing is indefensible. They didn't get along? Boo-hoo. He got them to the division title and the ALCS!
